2D SIDE-SCROLLING PLATFORM ADVENTURE BOOKBOUND BRIGADE IS NOW AVAILABLE ON PC, SWITCH AND PS4
Players are bound to love this unique Metroidvania genre tale featuring a library of literary legends such as King Arthur, Robin Hood and Dracula…
Intragames Co. Ltd is delighted to announce that its Metroidvania genre literary tale from Italian developer Digital Tales, Bookbound Brigade, has been released on Steam, Nintendo eShop and PlayStation Store localized in Asian languages.
Lead a motley crew of historical and fictional heroes, including Dracula, King Arthur, Queen Victoria, Nikola Tesla, Cassandra, Dorothy Gale, Sun Wukong the Monkey King and Robin Hood, and bring order back to a Literary World thrown into disarray by the theft of the ‘Book of Books’ aka BOB, a tome encompassing every single word ever written by man.
Traverse environments inspired by real-world locations and famous imaginary settings, all filled with secrets to uncover and obstacles to overcome. Push back against the forces of evil by harnessing powers like King Arthur’s fearsome charge with Excalibur and defensive Testudo shield or escape from harm’s way entirely with Dracula’s wings. Swap between four Brigade formations to access new areas, avoid enemy attacks, and navigate precarious platforms.
Interact with more than 50 non-playable characters from history and acclaimed works of fiction. Undertake side quests, uncover lost relics, such as the Mona Lisa, and face off against bosses like Frankenstein’s monster and the fearsome Medusa on this trip through space and time.
